UF and UMD are the only ones who haven't changed in recent weeks. There is a reason he is keeping them in there and for me it's just a hunch based on what I've read on here and other places.

Well then our coaches did a miserable job of explaining why he should come here. Unless if the kids goal is to play for a bad team and start immediately then we can't do anything about that. He'd definitely redshirt here. Our coaches can't compete against a good starting rotation when dealing with a kid who is either impatient or scared of competition.

I do think it is possible for Wilds, likely for Davis. I think we'll do just as we did this year - run when it's working, pass when it isn't and make those adjustments in-game. We should have been able to run against Clemson, but they crowded the line (as in several of their games) and we beat them with passes and QB runs. Tennessee stacked and dared us to beat them through the air, but our passing game was off, and Conner just couldn't escape the pressure (plus fumbles). We should have the weapons offensively to adjust and score points. Nosovitch is a good running/passing QB if the defense dictates it. Dylan can run some, especially in zone read and draw situations - he's just no Connor. Mitch should be developing, but as more of a shotgun throwing threat. I expect a lot of pistol next year with the multiple running styles our tailbacks have:
Davis: Great cutter, good speed, good power, elusive, good vision.
Wilds: Good power and lean, very good speed, straight-ahead guy.
Carson: Excellent burst, very good speed, straight-line runner, not powerful.
Williams: Excellent speed, good cutter, excellent vision, elusive.

Imagine Williams or Davis out of the pistol, able to pick a hole or bounce outside. If Wilds or Carson get past the second level on inside zone plays, either could be gone. Davis or Wilds out of the I with a Hback or FB blocker in short yardage. I hope Spurrier loves the run and the OL makes it sweet. If we can run it well, our passing game should be set up nicely.

From what I have seen Davis is faster than Wilds, but other than that I agree :)

Based on this Phil Kornblut update from 3 days ago, it would appear that the greyshirt offer we made in the fall still stands. There is no mention of it being reduced to a preferred walk-on offer. Who the heck knows until an announcement of some sort is made...

Those are your words not mine. I'm not sure that we were ever really in it with him once Tabor went to an east coast school. But a few posters said some things that got everyone's hopes up. Like I said it's just a hunch, I have no contacts or inside knowledge just observations.

In a perfect world, if you have a 24 player class, 12 would be on offense and defense. The 12 on offense would be 5 OL and 7 skill players....1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR and 1 TE......7 skill players out of 24 is 29%. 29% of 39 (Vonashek left) players is 11. So we are 1 short in each class. So it doesn't look like we're that far off.

Keep in mind that a recruit once chose a school because of a Chik-Fil-A. Another chose it due to a $180,000 donation to a church. Another chose a school because they sent a girl to his game and he got laid. Another recently chose a school that creates non-existent classes for football and stated that academics were the reason he picked the school.

Trying to understand why an 18 year old male makes ANY choice is a sure way to stress yourself out.

He doesn't care about anything other than immediate playing time. You have to realize some of these kids don't worry about winning in college. Their major is the NFL and they want a 3 year degree in it.

Prince can go to UMD and have a marginal shot at beating out the 2 Jr OT's they have as returning starters. It' a lot better shot than beating out our OT's or uf's. Good for him, he's going to be a HUGE fish in that small pond and in few years and a couple HC's, he can go pro and get paid.

I know some people pretty close to his recruitment, it's about a 90% chance he plays for the Garnet and Black. He and Scarnecchia are real hidden gems. We can definitely focus on just one QB next year (a top QB) and recruit tons and tons of OL and RB

Chances are we won't see SixStars again for a couple years. Then he'll resurface, give a cigar smiley and everyone will go crazy.

Six Stars said that was his prediction as of the day he made the prediction. He specifically stated that things could easily change in Prince's recruitment, as opposed to Lammons, who he was/is very sure is picking USC. In case you don't know who that is, he is a 4 star CB who just decommitted from your school.

He is a gator who can't get over the fact that they have lost three of the last four years to us, and are the fifth most relevant team in the East behind us, UGA, Mizzou, and Vandy.

Remember when we used to get all those wideouts and get our asses kicked? I personally like signing highly sought after lineman, defensive preferably. They're more athletic and can be converted to OL if it doesn't work out because were rolling so deep.
